One Piece: Lord of Disaster.

Chapter 253 A Few Things About Intelligence! A Horrifying Beast! Sulfur and Fire!
"I knew it! Boss! I knew you would come back someday!"

On the other end of the Den Den Mushi, Morgans' voice was almost cracking with excitement, "I've finally waited for this day! This sea is finally going to surge and roar again!"

"Ah,"

Luo Ya chuckled, "I thought you, like this ocean, had forgotten my name."

"how could be!"

Morgans' voice was solemn, as if he were making a vow, "The world without you is far too boring. I haven't encountered any exciting or chilling news in a long time! Unlike when you were still here, the world would be in turmoil every few days! Just for that reason, you should believe that I would never betray you!"

Roya chuckled.

That's true; Morgans isn't a normal person to begin with.

For him, even his life was less important than making a big news story.

It should be said that as long as I am still myself, this guy should still be on my side.

It wasn't because of threats or coercion, nor because of the bomb that was planted in his heart years ago.

In this respect, Morgans' loyalty may not be inferior to that of Abel and the others.

"So, what have you been doing all these years?"

Luo Ya asked with interest.

"Hehe, it's not just that I'm annoyed because there aren't enough shocking news stories!"

Morgans chuckled, "Boss, our informants are all over the world, in every country, every naval base, even the Pirate Emperors or the Seven Warlords of the Sea. Except for places like Amazon Lily, which are impossible to infiltrate, we have our eyes and ears even in Mary Geoise!"

"Oh? Not bad."

Luo Ya chuckled softly.

"Because before Dylan left the sea, he left me with a treasure that could be described as extravagant."

Morgans said, "More than half of that money is still left, and without that wealth, things wouldn't have gone so smoothly."

“Dylan? He did a good job,”

Luo Ya raised an eyebrow. "Have you been in contact with them all along?"

“One-sided contact,”

Morgans chuckled and said, "They don't seem to trust me very much either, they just contact me every now and then to ask if you're coming back."

"However, Boss, we have people in the Teach Pirates, the Giant Warrior Pirates, and the Moria Pirates."

Morgans added, "Are you going to see them next?"

"They'll come looking for me on their own later."

Roya casually replied, "If they're still willing to follow me."

"Hahaha! I get it! I totally understand, Boss!"

Morgans' voice suddenly became even more impassioned, "How do you plan to announce your return to the world? I will fully cooperate with you!!"

Even through the Den Den Mushi, Roya could feel the guy's excitement.

"I will go to Beehive Island to wait for them."

Luo Ya said, "After that, you help me notify everyone, help me tell the whole world, just say, I'm back."

"Yes!!!"

He roared almost hoarsely, "Even if I am purged by the World Government afterward, I will spread the news of your return throughout the world as soon as possible!"

"Liquidation?"

Roya smiled frivolously, looking up at the bright moon in the sky. "From the moment I arrived in this era, spanning twenty-five years, the balance of power shifted. Now, it is the World Government that should be feeling fear!"

"Boss!! I swear to be loyal to you to the death!!"

On a deserted island in the New World, Morgans was so excited he almost burst into tears.

It has to be the Boss!

Only when the Boss returns will the sea become even more turbulent!

Does this mean that Boss is preparing to officially go to war with the World Government?
Knew it!
really!

Compared to the Boss, those so-called pirate emperors and the Seven Warlords of the Sea are nothing but rotten fish and shrimp!
Then, Morgans heard the Boss's voice coming through the Den Den Mushi, "By the way, how are things in the West Blue and the North Blue? I heard that there was a riot in the North Blue more than ten years ago?"

"Yes, Boss!"

Morgans quickly replied, "About thirteen years ago, the people of Flevans, scattered across the North Sea, began to face their end."

"The long-dormant platinum lead disease has finally begun to erupt, with the elderly and children, whose immune systems are weak, being the first to fall ill."

"Then, the people of Frevans went completely mad."

"Needless to say, even among the originally mild-mannered Frevans, quite a few break down when faced with death."

"They decided to take their final revenge on the world government that persecuted them in the last moments of their lives; they wanted to destroy the world."

"Thus began the truly indiscriminate attacks."

"The madmen of the Flevans are indiscriminately attacking all the member states of the World Government. Although the Catastrophe Corporation is no longer providing them with weapons, they have still managed to acquire a lot of arms, plunging the entire North Sea into a desperate situation."

Cake Island.

Upon hearing Morgans' words on the Den Den Mushi, Roya nodded slightly, then asked, "So, were you involved in this?"

"Hehehe,"

Morgans said with a grin, "Because it's been a long time since we've had such a shocking news story, I was thinking about whether we could make it even more shocking."

"So, what was the result? I heard that the revolutionary army played a very outstanding role in that incident?"

Roya asked.

"Yes, there are a lot of Frevans in Dragon's group."

Morgans said, "So he didn't spend too much time figuring out what was going on in Frevans and sent his warriors to save many countries in that upheaval."

"Thus, the Self-Reliant Army, renamed the Revolutionary Army, became famous throughout the world twelve years ago!"

"The whole world now knows that there exists an army dedicated to overthrowing the world government and all corrupt monarchies!"

"After that, although the Revolutionary Army was constantly hunted down by the World Government, their power also expanded rapidly."

"Now, it's not just Beihai; they have people secretly developing power in many countries around the world. They are leading the oppressed people to rise up and resist, and they have already overthrown many countries."

"Oh, not bad at all."

Roya chuckled.

It seems that the darkness in this world has become so intense that the Revolutionary Army has played a significant role in it.

Dragon, you finally didn't disappoint me.

"certainly,"

Morgans' smile became even more meaningful. "Just like before, I am still watching over them for you."

"Even today, the revolutionary army remains indisputable in our eyes."

"very good."

Roya smiled even more pleased. "Morgans, you did a great job."

"You're too kind, it's what I should do!"

Morgans continued, "As for the West Sea, Becky's father has done a good job as well. His influence has expanded from the underground world to the noble class of the West Sea."

"He still holds the title of duke in a powerful constituent republic."

"He has drawn a large number of nobles into his network of interests. However, because you have temporarily left and the Disaster Company has disappeared, they dare not do anything more. Therefore, the West Sea is still calm at this time."

"However, the powder keg is already in place! A large number of nobles linked together means they can plunder and exploit more wantonly. Over the next twenty years, the living standards of the people of the Western Sea will definitely continue to decline!"

"And then there's the Flower Country. Thanks to your efforts, that country is still under control."

"Is that right?"

Luo Ya chuckled, "Then, let's detonate the powder keg next."

"Yes!!"

After ending the call with Morgans, Roya put away the Den Den Mushi.

Turning back, he casually asked, "How long are we going to wait there?"

"Hahaha, isn't this what you're plotting now?"

Katakuri leisurely emerged from around the corner, carrying two bottles of sake, and casually tossed one to Roya.

"Don't worry, I'm not interested in Lord Roya's crazy plans. How about a drink?"

"Human wine?"

Luo Ya flicked the bottle cap away with his thumb and said with some disdain.

"Even if you're looking for the devil's drink, I don't have any here."

Katakuri casually tossed his head back and gulped down a few mouthfuls of wine, not even wiping the smudges from his lips, before he began to speak.

"Wang Zhi is just the beginning, isn't he?"

How could this kid, who has gained even greater power, possibly stay put?
If he dared to retaliate against the World Government like that 25 years ago, it would be a complete disservice to Roja's insane personality not to directly wage war now.

Roya took a sip of his drink and said with a smile, "Of course you'll help me, right, Katakuri?"

"When we were kids, I helped you hunt down pirates; now it's your turn to help me hunt down the World Government."

"Hey, how dare you say that!"

Katakuri smirked and said irritably, "Back then, weren't you always just watching from the sidelines? Did you ever actually lift a finger?"

"What kind of boss attacks right from the start?"

Roya said in surprise, "Of course I have to deal with you first before I can make a move. Those pirates are just too weak."

"Whose boss are you talking about?"

Katakuri laughed and cursed.

“Hey, Katakuri,”

Luo Ya smiled and said, "Tell me about what you've been through over the years."

"Forcibly changing the subject? But that's a long story."

So Katakuri told Roa about what he had experienced over the past twenty years.

Ugh, he poured out his grievances. As the family's second-strongest fighter, he had to fight battles across the country for the family's sake.

As the elder brother trusted by everyone in the family, he often had to mediate conflicts between his younger siblings.

As a great pirate feared by the World Government and the Navy, he must always be wary of their clandestine schemes.

These things were already troubling him, but what was even more troublesome was that as his strength grew rapidly, his mother began to gradually become suspicious of him.

There was no way around it; at that time, Katakuri's strength was not only close to Charlotte Linlin's, but his reputation among his brothers and sisters in the family was also far beyond Charlotte Linlin's reach.

Therefore, it was only natural that Katakuri was suppressed.

He had a pretty tough time during that period, after all, there was still a gap in strength.

However, as it turned out, Charlotte Linlin's suspicions were not unfounded, because just four years later, Katakuri led his brothers and sisters in a rebellion against their mother.

After that battle, Charlotte Linlin's rule was overthrown, and Katakuri became the ruler of the country.

But this is not the end, because we can't just kill their mother or imprison her indefinitely, can we?

Not to mention that Charlotte Linlin herself is a huge fighting force, as one of the earliest children, Katakuri and she do indeed have a mother-son relationship.

As a result, Charlotte Linlin, who was basically unrestricted, would cause trouble every now and then.

Although he was severely suppressed by Katakuri and his brothers and sisters every time, it did make him very annoyed.

Listening to his old friend's endless complaints, Luo Ya couldn't help but laugh out loud.

The two chatted until late into the night.

Then, the next morning, a large ship set sail from Whole Cake Island, heading towards the rear of the New World, towards Beehive Island.

The ship's name is Cream Donut, which immediately tells you it's Katakuri's flagship.

Like all of Charlotte's large ships, this ship was also a giant homie.

Although Aunt Lingling angrily ran away to find reinforcements, the Homies remained active in the country.

"Is it necessary to bring so many people?"

Roya sat leisurely cross-legged on the ship's railing, watching with great interest the Charlotte family executives gathered on the deck.

Katakuri personally went out, and the Sweet Commanders sent Bonney and Cracker, along with other executives led by Oven.

This power is enough to take on the other pirate emperors.

"If I don't bring enough people, Mom probably won't come back willingly."

Katakuri said that.

Luo Ya burst out laughing again.

So, are they really planning to forcefully persuade Aunt Lingling?

"Shall we go straight to Silver Axe's territory?"

Bonnie leaned closer with an expectant look on his face. "I've wanted to kill that guy for ages! Hey, Roya, how about I go first and fight him?"

"That won't do, Bonnie. I need to say goodbye to Uncle Silver Axe properly."

Roya chuckled, then looked at Bonnie and raised an eyebrow, saying, "Also, shouldn't you at least call me Brother Roya?"

"what?"

Bonnie grinned and raised an eyebrow in disdain. "You should be calling me 'Sister Bonnie'! You're only sixteen, while I'm twenty-four!"

"Hmm—Sister Bonnie?"

Roya stroked his chin, lost in thought. "It seems pretty good."

His aesthetic preferences do indeed lean towards older women.

"Alright, just call me by my name."

Katakuri waved his hand, abruptly ending the topic.

No matter how I call it, it doesn't feel right.

Roya was indeed only three years younger than him, but he was also eight years younger than Bonnie.

"But Roya,"

Katakuri looked at Noah with a hint of seriousness in his eyes, "Besides being immortal, that Silver Axe guy should also have the ability to summon God Knights."

"I won't give him that chance."

Roya chuckled, "I will destroy all the places where he can inscribe magic circles in an instant."

"Then I'll definitely look forward to it!"

Katakuri's gaze was intense.

If Roja can really break the immortality barrier—hey!

In any case, a few days later.

Ansela Island.

This island is the stronghold of the Silver Axe Pirates.

The island was originally home to a small but prosperous nation, but all its citizens were driven off the island more than twenty years ago, and now it is just a playground for the Silver Axe Pirates.

Tens of thousands of pirates gathered here, spending their days indulging in pleasure and living a life of debauchery.

Meanwhile, in the sky above this island.

A large, pitch-black hand floated here in a terrifying way.

Four people were standing on the outstretched palm.

Roya, Tengetsu, Katakuri, and Bonnie.

"This move can actually be used like this?"

Bonnie stomped his feet, feeling the hardness of the hand.

Roya actually created a powerful arm and flew them all over from the distant sea!

"You want to learn?"

Luo Ya chuckled, "Calling me Brother Luo Ya isn't something I can't teach you."

Who's interested?

Bonnie crossed her arms and snorted coolly, "All I need is a sword!"

She's not even a power user.

Katakuri felt that only a Mythical Zoan-type Devil Fruit was worthy of his sister.

Unfortunately, it's not easy to find abilities that belong to mythical beasts.

"In that case, I can also teach you how to practice with the black sword."

Roya said.

"Huh? A black knife?"

He paused for a moment, then subconsciously looked at the tiger amulet at Luo Ya's waist.

Was that knife actually a black knife? The same black knife as Hawkeye's?

"Alright, enough of the nonsense."

Katakuri said somewhat impatiently, "Roya, it's your turn to perform."

"Fine, Katakuri, you really have no patience."

Roya complained.

"Cut the nonsense!"

Accompanied by Katakuri's irritating voice, Roya lightly leaped forward.

The next instant, his body suddenly swelled up.

A sudden gust of wind swept across the sky.

Because two broad, dark wings, like dark clouds, slowly fluttered.

"so big!!"

Bonnie couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

Because what appeared before the three of them was indeed an extraordinary behemoth.

The enormous, jet-black tiger slowly flapped its wings, floating in the sky in a manner that completely defied the laws of physics.

Its length from head to tail probably exceeds two hundred meters, not even counting the length of its tail and horns—a truly colossal creature!
Like in his beastman form, the black fur on Roya's beast form had also tangled together, forming an exoskeleton-like structure that added a thick, ferocious outer armor to his massive body.

Sharp bone spurs extend from various joints, especially the back, running from the neck along the spine to the tip of the tail.

The huge, menacing horns on his forehead pointed skyward, exuding an aura of dominance.

His body was also shrouded in a strange, dark aura, and Bonnie felt an odd pressure simply from getting a little closer.

It was as if she were an ant that sensed an impending natural disaster!
Not to mention her, even Katakuri's face turned slightly pale.

With such a sense of oppression, is Roya really a Devil Fruit user, or just the embodiment of this monster?

"Hmm! It's been a long time since I've used this form, and I'm really not used to it yet."

Luo Ya twisted his neck.

The beastman form is definitely easier to use and more practical.

However, it must be said that the beast form is the form with the strongest physical strength and defense.

"Then,"

Roya lowered his head and looked down at the island below.

"For those who betray, divine punishment must be brought down."

On the horns of the forehead, lines representing natural disasters began to spread.

Then, it suddenly started raining in the air below.

Those were golden flames.

A rain of fire fell from the sky, mingling with the sulfur mixed in, turning the entire sky golden.

It was not a simple mixture of flames and sulfur, but a true descent of sulfurous heavenly fire from mythology.
